The Frog

My Grannie opened the shower curtain. There was a frog. She screamed. It was loud. I said, “What’s wrong?” It was Tuesday. I had to catch the frog. When I caught it. I had to throw the frog. It was a cool frog. It was green. My Grannie was too loud. It was a poison frog. I don’t know why my Grannie said that

Movie Stars

by Gabby, first grader

The important thing about movie stars is that they are on T.V. They have awesome parties and have lots of money! They make movies and have a lot of fun. My favorite movie star is Lindsay Lohan. But the most important thing about movie stars is that they are on T.V.

The Dragon

Once upon a time there was a princess, a prince, a queen, a king, a witch, a knight, a horse, and a dragon. They lived in Virginia Beach But there was a little problem, the dragon was sick.

He had an act in the next performance and he had a fever. He was throwing up. In a while, he got much better. "He can perform!" everybody cried. "Hurrah," a cow said. Everybody got sick too. I think we have it now too.
